To determine differential tissue antigens in the same section immunocytochemically using the electron microscope, the neurohypophysis was examined following the application of a freeze-drying tissue preparation and staining with the protein A-colloidal gold-antibody complex method (Hisano S, Adachi T, Daikoku S: J Histochem Cytochem 32:705, 1984). At the light microscopic level, colocalized immunostaining for methionine-enkephalin (ENK) and oxytocin (OXT) was found in the rat neurohypophysis under different physiological states. Small pieces of the neurohypophysial tissue were frozen and dried. The dried tissue was fixed with paraformaldehyde vapor and embedded. The ultrathin sections were stained with the antibody for ENK coupled with protein A-small colloidal gold, and antibody for OXT or vasopressin (VP) conjugated with protein A-large colloidal gold. The ultrastructures of the nerve terminals were well preserved and showed many membrane-limited secretory granules. It was possible to identify both OXT- and VP-containing nerve terminals as their secretory granules were differentially labeled with protein A-colloidal gold anti-OXT or anti-VP complex, respectively. The secretory granules, which were labeled with large gold particles for OXT, also carry small gold particles. It is evident that ENK coexists with OXT in the same granules.
